- Why is Pha used in tissue engineering?
- Hence, PHA, due to their origin from natural sources, is used as raw material for producing tablets, nano-particles, etc. [43, 44]. For example: PHB, PHVB and their copolymers are used for delivery of antibiotics. 5.1.2. Tissue engineering PHA with little modifications contributes very much in the field of tissue engineering.
- How to improve the physical and chemical properties of PHA?
- Therefore, various approaches are devised to enhance the physical and chemical properties of the PHA in order to overcome these shortcomings by modifying the biopolymers. In order to extend PHA applications in various fields, they are modified either physically, chemically or biologically .
- Is Pha suitable for medical applications?
- PHA has properties quite similar to those of synthetic plastics. The unique properties like biodegradability, biocompatibility and non-toxicity make them desirable materials for biomedical applications. PHA has been found suitable for many applications in medical field. Some medical applications of PHA are as follows.
- Why is Pha important to biopolymers?
- PHA has drawn much attention due to their biological origin, biodegradable and biocompatible properties. These properties of biopolymers can be improved. There are many different modification approaches that have been employed to alter the polymer and its properties.
- How can Pha be used in different fields?
- In order to extend PHA applications in various fields, they are modified either physically, chemically or biologically . For example: chemically modified PHA with folic acid could efficiently serve as a cancer drug carrier. The PHA's modifications can also enhance the rate of degradation of these polymers. 2.
- Are polyhydroxyalkanoates the plastics of future?
- Future perspective Polyhydroxyalkanoates are produced by different microorganisms under stress conditions. PHA are easily biodegradable and sustainable, thus, are considered as the plastics of future. These bioplastics have the potential to replace the synthetic plastics, which can reduce the chances of development of junk of synthetic plastics.
